Abstract

Experimental evidence is presented of an unambiguous observation ny neutron scattering of energy-localized excited crystalline electric-field states of an actinide ion in a metallic compound. Energy transfer lines were found in an inelastic neutron-scattering experiment using a UPd₃ powder sample. These lines exhibit the following features: (a) The energies of the lines are Q independent. (b) The Q dependence of the line intensities concurs with the magnetic form factor of U⁴⁺. (c) The intensity of the line due to transitions from the ground state decreases as the temperature increases.
